Question: What is #project34?
Answer: Accountability!
Have you ever found yourself questioning the realistic reality of your life? To a point you just sit back, observe and begin to take notes?
I felt this happened for me around New Years 2015. It was the year of my 30th birthday and soon all was to change. Now let me start off by saying I don't necessarily dislike change. In fact I would like to think I'm one to embrace it. However sometimes I do not always respond my best given the levels of uncomfortableness per each individual situation. My grandmother always told me growing up "The one thing that is for sure in this life is change, so pay attention and brace for impact." and that stuck with me.
Life is forever changing and evolving. I have had overwhelming moments of defeats and amazingly fulfilling comebacks. I feel that those most raw moments in my life and the processing of those struggles are the real pieces that bring me to the growth needed to succeed. That in itself is truly the secret to surviving and thriving in my opinion. That is my mission with #project34.
Background: A few years ago I suddenly became sick and spent the better half of two years in and out of hospitals and doctors offices, on aggressive antibiotics along with a very strict dietary regimen. I was forced to look at my life and become accountable for my own health. I decided last year at thirty three years old to work on the self made #project33 where I tackled fitness, food, anxiety, meditation, minimalism, travel, family, friendships and everything in between via photography.
I decided that I would level up this year with #project34 and include blogging. I haven't blogged in years so this should be interesting. Lol But I have missed writing so with that being said here is to the kick off to Confessions of a Southern Viking Momma!!! This year will be about honesty, transparency and accountability. Growth is the key here. For anyone following this understand change is never easy but always necessary. Step up in your own life and say to yourself challenge accepted.
